State Treasurer Walker R. Stapleton welcomes you to the Great Colorado Payback!

The Great Colorado Payback is responsible for reuniting Coloradans with their lost or forgotten assets.

For example: if you have lost track of a bank account, stock certificate, or a retirement account; misplaced a rebate check, reimbursement or paycheck from a business; or moved prior to receiving your Colorado state tax rebate, the bank, business or state agency is required by law to file a report and forward those assets to the Unclaimed Property office of the Colorado State Treasurer.

Even businesses lose track of property and payments, occasionally resulting in unclaimed property which can be claimed. Corporations, schools, hospitals, and small businesses are also listed among the many individuals whose assets are in the possession of the State.

The Colorado State Treasurer currently maintains a list of over 1.7 million names of individuals as well as businesses for whom property is available. People can check names on the World Wide Web. Examples of these reportable accounts would include:

Checking

Utility Refunds

Stocks and Bonds

Oil and Gas Royalties

Safe Deposit Boxes

Uncashed Insurance Checks

Savings Accounts

Mutual Funds

Money Orders

Payroll Wages

Dividends

Security Deposits

Money or property turned over to the State Treasury for safekeeping always belongs to the owner or heir of the account and there are no time limits for filing your claim.
